It reached its peak extension during the Little Ice Age of the mid-19th century. Since then it has receded by about three kilometres in length, shrinking by about 40 metres a year. Meltwater flowing down has caused several caves to form under the glacier tongue, the end of the ice stream. In earlier times, the Morteratsch glacier stretched down into the valley, which is why it is also referred to as a valley glacier. Today, the glacier is still around 6.4km long and covers an area of 14.9km2.<\/p>\n<\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;]<div class=\"section__text section__text--center intro-animation intro-animation--bottom\"><p>Legal face value: CHF 10<br \/>\nAlloy: Cupronickel + Aluminium Bronze<br \/>\nDiameter: 33 mm<br \/>\nWeight: 15 g<br \/>\nDate of issue: 13.01.2022<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mintage<\/strong><br \/>\nProof in presentation case: 2,250 units<br \/>\nProof with artist certificate: 250 units<br \/>\nUncirculated: 10,800 units<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prices<\/strong><br \/>\nProof in presentation case: CHF 55.-<br \/>\nProof in presentation case with certificate from the artist: CHF 70.-<br \/>\nUncirculated: CHF 20.-<\/p>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div class=\"section__image section__image--center intro-animation intro-animation--bottom\"><div class=\"picture_container\" style=\"width: 160px\"><picture><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-bimetallmnze-bim-bildseite-ausgabe-2022-1-high-res-620x620px-2.png\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767.98px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-bimetallmnze-bim-bildseite-ausgabe-2022-1-high-res-620x620px-2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-bimetallmnze-bim-bildseite-ausgabe-2022-1-high-res-620x620px-2.png\" alt=\"Morteratsch glacier special coin\" width=\"620\" height=\"620\" \/><\/picture><\/div><\/div><div class=\"section__image section__image--center intro-animation intro-animation--bottom\"><div class=\"picture_container\" style=\"width: 160px\"><picture><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-kopie.png\"><source media=\"(max-width: 767.98px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-kopie.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/morteratsch-serie-schweizer-gletscher-alpina-1-von-3-chf-10-kopie.png\" alt=\"Morteratsch glacier special coin\" width=\"620\" height=\"620\" \/><\/picture><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":52,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5673","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5673","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5673"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5673\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7718,"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5673\/revisions\/7718"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sondermuenze.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5673"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
